2nd Generation Hayabusa
Wed 23 Apr 2008Filed Under: *Hayabusa BLOG | Comments Off on 2nd Generation Hayabusa
I keep looking at my new Hayabusa and thinking it looks unecessarily conservative wierd. It is not the same ‘out of this world’ design that the original model was subjected to. The original’s design was judged completely wired!
The new one just has bits added on to the original design – and its doesn’t look as ‘original’. I keep going on about design because I’m trying to understand what was the key thinking was…
I believe that they should have kept the original design, updated the rear end treatment and the exhaust pipes better quality exposed metal parts, changed the instrumentation but adding features rather than less! Of course the ability to change power settings should be retained!
That said the Hayabusa is still imposing in the physical form unlike the 1000cc+ bikes that want to look like a 250 wannbe.
I’m bringing it up again because the new 2008 Honda CBR1000RR is weird looking thing but I admire it more because the usual conservative Honda has given us something you can miss for any other model!

This is the homepage for the new animated Hayabusa wallpaper/screensaver for your mobile phone. Be nice because I ‘ve spent hours doing it. This is where you can actually download the files read about the history, technicalities and FAQ for the actual program. The files will always be free as per what I always do with this sort of thing for the Hayabusa.
This is one of the only authorized places where you should download the files since they have been virus and spyware checked before uploaded and completely free. I have to add that bit in because as usual, I assume that there will eventually be clones popping up once they’ve hacked it.
Instructions: Right click on your mouse and ‘Save the Link As’ on either links below then transfer the file to your mobile phone. If you don’t know how – just ask the kids.
There are 2 versions of the Animated Hayabusa Wallpaper/Screensaver.
1. Version 1 is for those who have older Nokia Mobile phones (or any other phone that has Flashlite 1.1). As a base, phones with S40 3rd Edition FP1 operating system can run this file without any problems. Note that the phone MUST have a screen size of 240 x 320 pixels!

This animated wallpaper has been optimised specifically for the newer phones and operating system. Older Nokia phones will NOT be able to run the file! The main modifications are the larger scrolling specifications page and the use of updated Flash coding. Note that the phone MUST have a screen size of 240 x 320 pixels!

Download removed due to the lack of interest – just email if you really want one!
If you have an older phone there is no reason to try Version 1a because it won’t run. Besides it’s graphics are positioned differently for the newer screens and it won’t look right. That said newer phone will run both versions perfectly BUT it won’t look the way it should, again due to the formating. Both do the same thing and are high quality software (Ie. commercial quality) as usual.
